(sorry, I'm really tired) and since curr3nt not only noticed that but even logicked out which letter it had to be for each possible miscount, he gets that letter and the 5 points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 GADJE Err, I think I've misunderstood the basis of this game. From prior discussions in this topic I thought that english words were required, and that possibly proper nouns were excluded. If Romani words are valid I've got some cracking Aboriginal words that aren't going to be on anyone's word list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 I've always thought that gadje was sufficiently borrowed into English to count as such... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Don't get me wrong shadow7, I genuinely do not know if there are any particular rules or if they are evolving... As far as words borrowed into english - i guess our backgrounds will vary our exposure enormously. There isn't much of a Romani community in West Oz but in the northern hemisphere...

Guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 TOAST (Since we're on a theme) For the record I've never heard of GADJE either. I checked Merriam-Webster online and also Dictionary.com and neither of those sites have it. Heck it wasn't even in my extremely extensive word list. (But it is now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curr3nt Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 ????? 1. FLOUR - 0 2. JELLY - 0 3. TOAST - 1 GADJE was on my not so extremely extensive list... I still like you Shadow7!

Guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 TIARA = 0 = BLEAT means that from TOAST = 1 either O is 2nd or S is 4th so let's go with FOLLY if 0 then S is 4th if 1 then FLOUR = 0 = JELLY rules out all by O, so O is 2nd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
